I can't believe some of these lists. While I love them, I can understand not liking the Grateful Dead, but The Who? The Clash? What do you have against rock 'n' roll?

I'll give you six and break it down by decade:

1950s - Pat Boone (OK, not a band but an artist and everything that was wrong with the white-bread-itization of rock 'n' roll in the 1950s)
1960s - The Osmonds
1970s - Tony Orlando & Dawn
1980s - Air Supply
1990s - 'N Sync
2000s - The Flaming Lips

I had an entire post typed out explaining the nuances behind why your list is worse than a six pack of Cave Creek Chili Beer, chased with 40's of warm Olde English 800, but I'll forgo the novella for this singular demonstration of the depths to which your post falls:

The fact that you (a self-proclaimed libertarian) would even jokingly decry the band that sang Won't Get Fooled Again, container of such wonderful lines as: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss", is an irony worthy of Oedipus himself.

I'm not a libertarian, and I'm lucky that I even found this post thanks to the goddamn TNZ thread that has my name in nearly every post.
